About Me



I founded Tom Edwards Design in early 2015 with the goal of producing top-quality artwork for clients, regardless of the subject or genre. I've had the privilege of working with top sci-fi authors like G.J. Ogden, Scott Bartlett, James Rosone, Ken Lozito, Daniel Arenson, and Craig Martelle. These collaborations have honed my artistic skills and deepened my understanding of the genre, allowing me to create iconic covers that resonate with fans.

I am passionate about helping new authors bring their unique worlds to life. Guiding emerging voices through the creative process and watching their stories take flight is incredibly rewarding. Working directly with authors lets me understand their vision and translate it into captivating covers that resonate with readers. This collaborative process has enriched my creative journey and forged strong, lasting relationships with clients. My blend of artistic skill and genre-specific knowledge has made me a sought-after artist, contributing to many successful book projects.

If you're looking for a book cover artist with a passion for sci-fi and fantasy, let's collaborate to create a captivating cover that will enchant readers and perfectly encapsulate your story.

Author Testimonials

Hundreds of authors have trusted me with their vision, here are a few...

Chris DeSantis

"I could not have had a better experience working with Tom. On the business side, he was extremely professional; delivering iterations on the promised timeline and clearly communicating throughout the process. For the artwork, he took my concept and created an absolutely gorgeous cover that tells a story unto itself. His talent is undeniable and clearly appeals to readers, as his work is all over the bestsellers lists. Do yourself a favor and book Tom for your cover. But not too many; I'll need him again."

Ira Heinichen

"Tom is the consummate professional. Not only is his artwork top-of-the-line, he is communicative and clear, he keeps his deadlines, and he both listens to the input I give him and offers his own insights as to what will work best. I've worked with Tom on three book covers, and he has exceeded my expectations each and every time. His ability to translate a written brief into a captivating image that tells a story and excites the reader is truly exceptional. I consider myself incredibly lucky to have worked with someone so talented and professional. I offer Tom the highest recommendation I can possibly think of."

Philip C. Quaintrell

"What a fantastic experience! Tom listened to my brief, offered me multiple sketches, created a set of brilliant covers and they were all delivered on time with easy communication throughout. That might sound simple but that kind of service isn't always easy to find with Tom's caliber of illustration. I will definitely be coming back for more!"

C.C. Ekeke

"I've used Tom Edwards for nine covers (and counting). Each time he translates my written project overviews into pieces of beautiful, high-quality artwork. Whenever I send a new project summary, the end results always surpass expectations. I've never had a cover artist visually articulately scenes from my books as expertly as Tom. He is extremely professional in how he collaborates with an author's vision, communicates fantastically if any aspect of the project overview isn't clear, and never fails to meets any deadlines. These are just a few of the reasons why Tom Edwards is the top sci-fi cover artist in the indie publishing business. I cannot recommend him highly enough."

Scott Bartlett

"I consider Tom Edwards' artwork central to selling my books. It's the first thing the reader sees - the first step he or she takes on the path to reading my work. An Edwards cover is instantly recognizable by its quality and style, yet Tom’s range is extensive, and he always succeeds in giving me exactly what I want: a cover that signals strongly to the readers of my genre, while differentiating my books within that genre. On top of that, Tom’s a professional and a truly nice guy. It’s my privilege to recommend him as a cover artist."

Ben Winter

"People say you shouldn’t judge a book by the cover, but that’s nonsense, literally everyone does. Therefore, finding the right cover artist is serious business. How can you be sure an artist will successfully satisfy both your desire as an author to see your labour of love visualised, and also make sure you have an eye-catching design for your audience. Tom walks that line brilliantly. From the first concept I knew I’d found the right person to bring my novel to life. He understood the brief completely, and seeing the elements appear on the cover has been one of the more satisfying parts of the publishing journey for me. Tom is not only an exceptionally talented artist, but a very professional and easy to work with person. I'm looking forward to working with him again"
